The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry offers five undergraduate degrees, including a Chemistry B.S. degree accredited by the American Chemical Society.Undergrad Degree Programs Students must maintain a minimum grade point average of 2.0 in the major, complete at least the last 30 credit hours of courses at Duquesne, pre-register (with the Academic Advisor) for a B.S./B.A. degree in a major field, and submit an application for degree form provided by the Registrar before the deadline published in the current University calendar. (No student is considered a degree candidate prior to submission of this form.) In addition, specific degree programs are summarized below. B.S. in Chemistry. Students are required to complete at least 125 credit hours of courses successfully. Two of a student’s four Chemistry/Math electives must be Chemistry courses. To earn a B.S. Chemistry degree accredited by the American Chemical Society, the remaining two electives must be Mathematics classes. B.S. in Biochemistry. Students are required to complete at least 128 credit hours of courses successfully. B.S. in Environmental Chemistry. Students are required to complete at least 128 credit hours of courses successfully. B.A. in Biochemistry. Students are required to complete at least 122 credit hours of courses successfully. Courses required for graduation may be found here, and suggested sequences of science and mathematics courses required for each degree may be found here. Curricula leading to each of our B.S. and B.A. degrees were designed to conform to recommendations of the American Chemical Society’s Committee on Professional Training.
